"One day Pete and Pam Hollister rescued a Seminole Indian named Charlie Tiger Tail from drowning in Pine Lake. But they never dreamed that their heroic act would lead to a new, exciting mystery and a vacation in Florida. Within a few days, all the Hollisters were enjoying the beach at Turtle Point in the Everglades. And they were eager to help Charlie catch a gang of thieves who were illegally killing giant sea turtles and stealing their eggs! ... There were many ... thrilling adventures--including Ricky's capture by the thieves--before the Hollisters finally traced the poachers to their hideout and solved the sea turtle mystery."--Amazon.com

other relatives.
As the family journey there they also realize Joey is there visiting friends and he gets them into trouble, as usual.
So many educational things I enjoyed learning about: the huge sea turtles and the seashell and their names.
So many scary parts also and sketches help to tell the story.
Can't wait to find out what other mysteries they will uncover...
